Lamb, Marchbank, Plowman, Wright, Kerridge, Jones, Docherty.....all failed to get a win against Hawks.
For completeness sake, Gorringe and Phillips also failed to get a win over the hawks in there career.
Alex Silvagni did manage to get a couple as well at Freo.

Green shoots before the green shoots thread :
1. Pickett's tackle on Gunston
2. Lamb needling Sicilia to give away 7 frees
3. The win

I always thought that when Carlton finally won I would watch it over and over. Not so certain about that one. It was hardly a win for the ages, and looked every part the round 22 dead rubber it was.
But grand to win and sing the song.
The ruck duel was excellent with both at the top of their game. It was the highest quality aspect of the match.
Docherty, Murphy, Jones, weitering were the best for mine. We fumbled plenty and looked a bit confused at times as we looked at times to go forward and preferred to kick sideways.
Still, we scratched out a score. Lamb looked like he belonged and wright is our most creative forward.
Sicily gave away 7 frees, helping us out plenty. Hodge too played like a man with one foot out the door.
And we are in 15th, rocketing up the ladder. Great to win
It was far from a dead rubber, Hawks had plenty to play for. Makes the win even more noteworthy!

Daisy on the other hand earned his money and was good value.
Liam Jones BOG for me....Docherty next best and Weitering was very good..
A fortnight ago I would have agreed with you but Boekhorst won't be getting delisted in my opinion.
He does some rabbit in the spotlight things but he knows where the ball is and has genuine pace and skill, his goal against West Coast last week was top shelf.

I think Bolts sees Boeky as our Isaac Smith. He needs to toughen up a bit and be a bit more composed.

Yep, to anyone who thinks it was dead rubber meaningless I would return an old Carlton saying Pigs Arse.

Composure could come with experience, although he's 22 or 23 he hasn't played much senior football.
At the very least he can be called up to the seniors in the event of injury and not disgrace himself.

I hope not, because there's a big difference between a regular in a 3peat flag team, and someone who can barely get a game in a cellar dweller team. I think from memory he was almost a Norm Smith medallist in one of the grand finals.
I like Boeky, but let's not get silly here.
